Chase United Explorer

I've been wanting this card since I started rebuilding a year ago, patiently gardening over that period. Timing seemed so right as they are offering a 70K sign up bonus and I received a promotional offer for the card in the mail on Saturday.

 

So Sunday afternoon I took the plunge and applied. Was not instantly approved and got the dreaded 7-10 day wait period as well as an email that said you will receive feedback in 30 days. I was so bummed and figured I would have to recon this week and hopefully sweet talk them into an approval.

 

I woke up this morning still defeated as I logged into my Chase checking account and to my surprise I saw a United credit card on my statement with a 5K SL. Needless to say I am happy and have never been so excited to pay a medical bill in my life.

Riding the high of my Chase approval I went ahead and just applied for the BoA Alaska Airlines Sig and was approved for 7K. Back to the garden for another 6 months.
